John Palmer House

Located on Mississippi St., in NE Portland. The front gate is padlocked and bushes, as you can see, cover the view of most of the front of the house now. I’m not sure if tours are conducted or if the house is just closed up. It is on the National Historic Registry.

‘Painted Ladies’ of Albina St.

Not exactly as impressive as the ‘Painted Ladies‘ across from Alamo Park in San Francisco, but that is what came to mind as I walked by these houses on Albina St. in NE Portland.

Top photo from the 34th St. station ( Manhattan) and the lower image from the 4th Ave. station in Brooklyn after exiting the F train. This day there was a maintenance person washing the floors with a solution that must have been 50% bleach. Very clean and very smelly.
